Music by Guiseppe Verdi, Libretto in Italian by Francesco Maria Piave, based on Alexandre Dumas’ play “La Dame aux Camelias,” after his novel by the same name.

Verdi’s poignantly tragic La Traviata chronicles the ill-fated romance of Violetta Valéry and Alfredo Germont. Forced to decide between a tenuous independence and her true love, Violetta aims for the fairy tales. However, Alfredo’s father, Giorgio, brings a dose of sobering reality to the party which puts the faith of both lovers to the ultimate test.

Hubbard Hall Opera Theater’s production is presented in the GE Theatre at Proctors not at their home venue, Hubbard Hall in Cambridge, NY.
